How Can Tutorials Effectively Impact the Classroom?

Tutorials can effectively impact the classroom by allowing students to engage in independent study. Tutorials can be used for:
  • independent assignments
  • put in a center for acceleration or remediation.
  • Clarifiying an online project or assignment for students to complete
  • Explaining how to navigate through the internet for students to properly conduct research
  • Students creating tutorials to teach each other
Tutorials allow for differentiation within the classroom. A teacher can work with a small group while other students are using a tutorial to complete an assignment independently or with a partner. Tutorials also effectively impact the classroom by addressing different learning styles. Tutorials may appeal to kinsethic, visual, and audio learners. Teachers and students can create tutorials that include photographs, diagrams, and music. Some tutorials engage the participant by having them interact by completing a specific task. Another benefit of tutorials is that it allows for students to work at their own pace. Students have the option of pausing, rewinding, and fast forwarding to the portion of the tutorial that they need to contribute to their learning.
